Case Study: BWT Alpine F1 Team drives real-time race decisions with KX

Driving decision intelligence at 330kmph with BWT Alpine F1® Team

BWT Alpine F1 Team faced the challenge of managing and extracting value from the vast amounts of data generated by R&D simulations and on-track telemetry. The team required a solution to analyze this data in real time, integrate it from multiple sources into a single store, and use it to inform critical, sub-second decisions during races. They partnered with KX to find a data analytics solution that could meet the extreme speed and performance demands of Formula One.

KX implemented its platform, which seamlessly integrated with the team's Microsoft Azure environment. This solution provided a single source of data, enabling engineers to access and analyze both historical and real-time information instantly. As a result, the team shifted from taking hours to make data-informed decisions to making crucial performance and strategy calls in the moment, directly contributing to on-track success as evidenced by managing the car's brakes in real time during the 2021 Austin Grand Prix.
